What do you want others to know about your home country/culture?
I think when you go to Nepal, you will see things that you have never seen. There is lots of suffering, but my friends told me that they learned to appreciate their own life after coming to Nepal.

Hikes to villages are fun, people on the way stop you and offer you foods, tell you stories, you make friends everyday.
